Game of Thrones: From King of Elden to Teen Wolf Lord

Chapter 58 Balon’s Route

Theon looked at his father and let go of his hand.

Asha was furious, stood up suddenly, stared at Xion with the eyes of a beast looking at its prey, as if she wanted to cut her own brother into pieces.

King Balon looked at his son: "You are quite brave. This is what an Ironborn should be. So, why did you come back?"

Theon Greyjoy looked at a room full of strangers: "The King in the North has publicly announced the end of my life as a hostage. Of course I want to go home."

"So, have you thought clearly? Should your last name be Stark or Greyjoy?"

A trace of hesitation flashed across Theon's face. He didn't want to be Robb's enemy just yet.

Not because of the years of brotherhood, but because of Robb's invincibility on the battlefield, which made him a little... afraid.

But Theon finally made his decision. He wanted to prove himself, not only to his father, but also to the entire Westeros continent!
Theon Greyjoy is not a hostage trapped in the Stark family, but the future master of the Iron Islands!

Robb is a good man and he trusts himself, but he can't give him what he wants.

"Of course my name is Greyjoy, it's the surname I was born with."

King Balon nodded: "Very good. Now that you have made a decision, let's have a drink and then come to my study. I will announce the plan."

He said no more, turned and left, followed by two personal guards.His brothers immediately followed.

After Theon had eaten and drank enough, he staggered across the suspension bridge and walked towards his father's study in the Sea Tower.

Asha followed Theon.

Xion's eyes were blurred with drunkenness, but he was very alert in his heart: "Why, you want to push me into the sea while I'm drunk?"

Asha looked at her brother with some curiosity: "You should know that even if you come back, your father will not believe you."

"It doesn't matter, I will prove to him who is truly suitable to lead the Iron Islands."

Xion didn't want to pay attention to his sister. In his opinion, his sister was just a bitch who used some tricks to make his father happy while he was away.

As for her claim to the throne of the Iron Islands?

dream!

A woman may be king in Westeros, but in the Iron Islands, this will never happen!

Due to the lack of production materials and the tough folk customs of the Iron Islands, robbery is the main means of survival in the Iron Islands.

They have robbed most of the countries in Westeros.

In this kind of cultural influence, the status of women can be imagined.

In the Iron Islands, a man could marry multiple wives, and the more wives he married, the higher his status.

Women are basically no different from objects.

Therefore, Theon believes that no matter how favored Asha is by King Balon, she still has no capital to compete with him for the position of Lord of the Iron Islands.

The two came to the study room, which was as humid and draughty as usual.

His father, King Balon, was wrapped in a sealskin robe and sat in front of the brazier, with his two younger brothers sitting on either side.

King Balon said hoarsely: "I will tell you the plan now, and you just follow it." Xion quickly stepped forward to offer advice: "Father, I am very familiar with the situation in the north. My suggestion is..."

Balon interrupted his son impatiently: "When I need your advice, I will ask you."

Theon closed his mouth in disappointment.

King Balon spoke slowly: "The people from the six major islands of the Iron Islands are almost here. We will set off as soon as everyone arrives. First of all, you... you take ten ships to attack the rocky coast and plunder the coastal fishing villages."

fishing village?

Theon looked at his father in disbelief. You want to plunder wealth, but you only give your son ten ships and ask him to loot fishing villages?
What resources do fishermen have?
Should I let myself mess with their ugly daughters?
"Then you, Asha, take thirty ships to Sea Dragon Point. Just wait for the tide to arrive, and then land north of Deepwood Castle. You have to act fast, and you must take the castle for me before they notice."

A satisfied smile appeared on Asha's face: "I have long wanted to see what the castle in the Green Land looks like."

"Now you can enjoy it for a while."

Xion looked at the father and daughter and was so angry that his back teeth were about to be broken.

Deepwood Castle is located deep in the Wolf Woods and is a wooden fortress on a hill.

But it is more appropriate to describe it as 'just a wooden urinal on a barren mountain'.Theon thought that he had visited Deepwood Castle many times with the Stark family. In terms of familiarity, he was better than everyone here!

But his father just can't trust him yet.

Even if Theon showed a little bit of manliness when he threatened his sister just now, King Balon looked at him like a softie and not a real ironborn.

Maybe he was an undercover agent sent by Stark!

After explaining his children, King Balon looked at his two brothers again: "The most important blow is yours. When they attack from all sides, Winterfell will definitely react. At this time, you sail to the Saltspear Beach and follow the Climb up the Redang River. After crossing them, capture the Gulf of Carlin.

All routes to the Western Sea are now within the control of the Iron Islands. On land, the Gulf of Cailin is an important city that divides the North from other kingdoms.

Because Carlin Bay relies on swamps and terrain, its defensive capabilities are extremely powerful. It can defend the armies of other kingdoms as long as it is on land, but it also hinders its communication with the outside world.

If Moat Cailin were captured by the Iron Islands, Robb's army would be trapped in the Riverlands, unable to return to the North.

This is King Balon’s offensive route, which is divided into three parts:
The main force hid, waiting for the opportunity to occupy Carlin Bay in one fell swoop.

Asha, the secondary force, needs to occupy a fortress. Deepwood Motte is very close to Winterfell, which is a nail in Robb's chest.

Finally, there is the dispensable Xion, whose actions disgust the opponent.

After the deployment was completed, King Balon's face turned red: "The lords are all going to the south with that little beast Robb. They must surrender or die."

As long as everything goes well, the territory in the north will be ours, the forests, fields and halls belong to us, and we will capture their subjects as slaves and salt concubines. "

The two younger brothers on the side shouted together: "The anger of the ocean will eventually explode, and the great Drowned God will gain authority in the green land!"

"The dead will never die!" Asha on the side muttered a prayer in a low voice.

Theon Greyjoy read a few words.

He was not yet familiar with what they called the Drowned God's Prayer. After all, he had been away from here for too long.

But this doesn't stop me from having my own team soon.
